Service and Staff

3 out of 5
First room Stewart left on vacation (while boat out to sea?). Saw 2nd Stewart in hall twice while looking for toilet paper and Kleenex for the bathroom on day 4. ??? Dining crew was bored, no one showing up for sit down meals.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
I found it hard to get around, small show space/ seating. Was not a fan of Horizon

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Gotta love a balcony. However was not cleaned prior arrival with coffee stained table and windows, and Stewart never cleaned. Curtain in room was falling off the track, never fixed all week.

Ship tip

If your elder as I am, everything is done on the Da** App. I don’t want to carry my phone in a clutch on elegant night dinner to look at my menu online!!!

Thanks for sharing. You can request the printed fun times and they will bring it to you, same with the menu at dinner, if you ask the waiter will give it to you

Appreciate your feedback. We would prefer to leave our phones in the safe, as an old curmudgeon myself.
